The name pansy is derived from the French word pensée meaning "thought", and was so named because the flower resembles a human face; in August it nods forward as if deep in thought.
Found this interesting plant at BiMart for $1.25. It now lives in a nice pot on my porch. Everyday I look at it and think it is the weirdest looking flower I've ever seen.
for not posting any new photos over the past few days. It's not my fault though. How can I take photos when it's constantly raining? Please, please, please weather gods, we've had enough rain.
8 days ago I had about 20 of my photos hung at my friend's office in downtown. Five have already sold. FIVE! I can't believe it!
I can't remember the name of this plant. It's Mullykat, or Mallykat or something???? Anyone know? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Was a beautiful evening in Portland. The kid went with her dad to a movie and I took a lovely stroll through the 'hood. Although I don't think any of these are worthy of keeping, I did enjoy taking the photos... very much.
